SongIdentificationFilter: This song would be well suited to a slow motion lovers-into-each-others-arms scene.

It has a very 70's feel, and is centered around a swooning and syrupy string section. I'm quite set on finding it, because in addition to it's campy sappiness, it's got a distinctly danceable groove as well. I heard it in a bar in Maryland last week, which was quite unexpected, as prior to this I've only heard this in film/television. There were, iirc, no or very minimal lyrics.

hmmmm... i'd like to help but those are some very vague clues. can you give us anything more to go on? can you recall any of the lyrics? male or female singer? etc.posted by wondering at 3:25 PM on March 19, 2007

sounds like some barry white would be a good place to start.posted by teishu at 3:28 PM on March 19, 2007

Acutally, I'm now certain it was instrumental. (I'm pretty familiar with Barry White's catalog, and I don't think it was his stuff)posted by phrontist at 3:34 PM on March 19, 2007

I think it would also be fair to categorize it as Disco. A friend of mine, after hearing me hum it, thinks he heard it on the Wonder Years.posted by phrontist at 3:39 PM on March 19, 2007
